  1. He certainly wasn't the first player to enjoy women! Whether or not he did it more than others or it affected his play is pure speculation.
  2. Being compared to Steve Kemp is not a knock. I liked Higginson and I thought he and Clark got a bad rap as the best hitters on a bad team.
  3. I doubt I will watch the all-star game, but Cabrera does seem like the right choice if the have pick someone. He has been their only consistent hitter all year.
  4. Kemp and Higginson were similar. Kemp will always be remembered more for who he was traded for than what he did with the Tigers.
  5. I think being smart makes DeSantis potentially more dangerous, but only if he has the same intent as Trump. I am pretty sure deSantis' intentions are not good, but I don't know how bad they are. Trump was pretty easy to figure out. He hasn't changed in over 40 years. He was a horrible person before DeSantis was even born.
  6. Oil was down 9% today and is now under $100. Things may be happening.
  7. The bigotry is just a front to get the stupid MAGAs on board. None of power seekers give a crap about any of that stuff.
  8. Maybe the Russian oligarchs had no problem with Putin as he rose to power. Money is very powerful. Almost everything this country does is for their benefit. I don't see that changing. Maybe they want a fascist police state. I don't know.
  9. Yes, it is not any kind of analysis. I just thought the numbers looked low.
  10. There are oligarchs that are wealthy enough to buy the United States. The question is do the oligarchs want a police state fascist?
  11. One thing is that he wouldn't be easily duped by dictators of other countries. He wouldn't make us the laughingstock of the world with his idiocy. On the other hand, he could be more dangerous to our democracy as you say. I don't know yet. Would he alienate more than half the country by "owning the libs" or would he become more moderate as President than he is as governor of a red state?
  12. Is that deaths per year?
  13. If I had to choose between them, I would choose the devil I don't know. I absolutely can not stand hearing or seeing Trump or watching his naive followers fawn over him. Trump with a brain would be more dangerous though, so it could get worse.
  14. you said he was a fascist mother ****** douchebag moron?
  15. Oil down 9% today.
  16. My view is that DeSantis should go **** himself.
  17. No, only a small percentage would qualify. The rest of them don't get to have guns.
  18. Can 330 million people be organized?
  19. I just dropped by tonight to say that MTG is an absoulte piece of trash that represents everything that is wrong with America. When did Republicans ever give a crap about mental health or substance abuse treatment? They are the ones that keep making cuts
  20. That is probably best. Being rushed to the Majors (due to Rule 5) may be the reason for his shortcomings. If not for Rule 5, he probably would have spent last year in AA and this year in AAA.
  21. Shop all of the relievers, even the young ones. I am not saying trade them all, but do not hesitate to trade any reliever who brings a good return.
  22. Do you fantasize about being more proficient at handling a shooting situation than professional cops?
  23. Drafting is a different skill set from other GM duties. Drafting requires good scouting and doing the work to determine the order in which players should be drafted. Trading requires more negotiation and deal making which someone might not be good at even if they know who to target. This is an oversimplification, but I can definitely see where someone could be competent in one and incompetent in the other.
